A natural stone retaining wall is the real thing: hand-selected stone, set and mortared by a mason, built on a proper footing with drainage behind it. It holds back the bank, lasts for decades, and adds more to a property than almost any other landscape feature. We build them across Langley and the Fraser Valley.

What's included

When you need natural stone walls

A slope eating your yard

If half your backyard is an unusable bank, a stone wall terraces it into flat, planted space you can actually use.

An old wall failing

Bowing, cracking, or leaning timber and block walls are telling you they're done. Stone is the permanent fix.

You want it to look good

Stone is the finish people stop and look at. If curb appeal matters, this is the wall.

Our process

  1. 1

    Walk the site

    We look at the grade, the soil, and where the water goes, then talk through stone options.

  2. 2

    Footing and drainage

    We excavate, lay a compacted base, and set the drainage before a single stone goes down.

  3. 3

    Lay the stone

    Each stone is chosen and set by hand, mortared, and the joints pointed clean.

  4. 4

    Cap and clean

    We cap the top, restore the grade, and leave the site tidy.

Natural Stone Walls: common questions

What kind of retaining walls do you build?

Masonry walls: mortared natural stone, brick, armour stone and boulder walls, and reinforced concrete block or segmental walls. We're a mason, so stone and brick are our specialty, but we build the right wall for your site.

How tall can a retaining wall be?

We build walls of all heights. Once a wall passes about a metre, or holds a load like a driveway, it usually needs an engineer's design and a permit. We arrange both so it's done by the book.

Why do retaining walls fail?

Almost always water. When water builds up behind a wall with no drainage, the pressure pushes it over. That's why we put as much work into the footing and drainage as the stone you see.

Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Langley?

Lower garden walls usually don't, but taller or load-bearing walls do, and the rules vary between Langley City, the Township, and Surrey. We'll tell you what your wall needs and handle the permit and engineering if it does.

How long does a retaining wall take to build?

It depends on the size, the stone, and the site access. A small garden wall can be a couple of days; a large engineered wall can run a week or more. We'll give you a realistic timeline when we quote.
